Summer transfer targets

The Inverness Courier has pictures of both trialists but no other details as to their identities

 

The jist of the article is that they may look to extend the trials as the two lads were not registered in time to play the development game.

 

Also seems to suggest that loan signings may be used also

I'm most likely wrong but could the first one be Alex Nimley formerly of Manchester City (Released at the end of last season)

According to a Facebook account of the same name, for a footballer from Port Harcourt (home of Dolphins), he actually lives in Edinburgh.  Profile photo looks like him in what seems to be a Stoke away top from 2011/12.

Came across an old programme v Hibs for the first home game of the 2011/12 season and it had this away player profile for one of our summer targets ;-)

Born in Newcastle, he is a talented midfielder. He signed a new contract with the club in January 2011 and the future looks bright for the former Wallsend Boys Club player who made his senior debut as a substitute at Inverness last May.

Seems to be word on social media that one of the trialists is indeed the one that you mention. The other being Dare as mentioned above. No official confirmation anywhere though

 

Time running out on signings though so would be good to see a couple of new faces by the end of the week

It's a tricky one for ICT - do we sign one of these guys without having seen him play a competitive match? The next Development League game is away to Aberdeen on 2nd September....after the transfer window has closed!

Uness, they can be signed after this time, being free-agents?

There's always going to be an element of risk when signing players late on in the transfer window, just as there is with signing guys on loan.

 

Would imagine that Yogi and his coaches will have got a decent idea of the players ability in training. I would imagine that he would have set up training games either amongst the first team squad or the youngsters to see how the players do in a 'game'

 

I would certainly hope that Yogi would err on the side of caution and have lads signed up as cover prior to the transfer window closing in case of any last minute bids for players like McKay (who there seems to be a lot of rumour about)
